Perhaps, but Gattaca was a worst case DNA/police state scenario, yet we are seeing the developing mold of such a society today.
I see how SciFi can warn us, but we must pay attention and heed these ideas as well.
Merely writing about them isn't enough.
Well, first... it seems this is a site to "promote" google+. I was interested in it until I saw that.
Next, scarcity is a way for salespeople to promote fear and need.
There is no irony, only sales.
Hollywood doesn't.
In fact, doesnt Hollywood have a counter to netflix in the works? Flikr or something like that?
They have already made their movie by no longer signing with Netflix, except Disney I think, and even STARZ has pulled out.
So they are adapting by following others, you know... like what every tech industry does.
Yeah, there was this 16 year old kid who said "you guys better not laugh at me when I get on Ventrillo".
I said... "There are 6 billion people in the world, get over yourself."
You know what will fix this and bring jobs back to the USA? Accountability.
Accountability for what your outsourced partner is doing, accountability for the third party you hire, and accountability for their working conditions on the same level with the USAs internal standards.
The only reason Facebook was better was because MySpace was its only competition. I mean, a virus laden social media platform that you could customize with terrible backgrounds, fonts, oh.. and music embeds vs friendly banter messages and drunken photos.
The world has spoken, and the world said "noobs shouldnt mess with html!"
Yes, but in all fairness I picture all corporate employees who lash out like this.
Since when did Corporations become the schoolyard I was on when I was 12?
Well, the sooner it happens the faster people will not be able to bitch because they have salt water in their mouth.
Seriously, the back and forth wares me out. Once it happens, at least people who are still alive can tell others. "Told you so".
Ironically, holding on to a floatation device....
I wish they would TAKE it.
OOOHHHH You flipped a random card and beat me by one point.
Chance is for texting while driving and hand grenades. Real men play chess!
Much like HIPPA, where its "best effort" at a minimum.
Them:What? I zipped it with a password, doesnt that protect the patient information?
Me: Sure, for about 5 minutes. *doublefacepalm*

That is what we are dealing with. From HDs to gas prices.
UCaB was already taken.

What are you 12....
and on the internet?
Because the bill is aimed at cel phone carriers, namely AT&Ts baby crying they did in response to their attempted takeover of T-Mobile?
Thank you for your insight.
as a pessimistic tech, this lightens my day

In one of those clips, I imagined "space invaders", in real life.

Well its either that or talking about the astrophilogical physics of quantum nutri.....zzzzzzzz....
"Only 62"?
My guess is you are older than that.
